In 2002 Borovi\\'canin showed which line graphs $L(H)$ have third largest eigenvalue $\\lambda_3\\leq0$. Our first observation is that two of the graphs Borovi\\'canin found are the complements of two of the graphs found by Cvetkovi\\'c and Simi\\'c. Using the Courant-Weyl inequalities we show why this is and reprove the result of Borovi\\'canin, highlighting some features of the graphs found by both.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2012-04-13T13:11:15.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05C50" ], "keywords": [ "line graphs", "bipartite complements", "positive eigenvalues", "connection", "third largest eigenvalue" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 4, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2012arXiv1204.2981G" } } }
